What to do if you happen to be in Milan and don’t want to give up on your fitness routine? You don’t have to worry, as the majority of Milan’s luxury hotels features a private gym where you can train, do bodybuilding exercises, weight-lifting and tone up programmes. The city also boasts a uber-rich selection of gyms offering additional services such as fitness, matwork, yoga, boxing, functional activities and CrossFit classes. However, the majority of the local gyms don’t include the possibility to enjoy a daily gym pass, but only offer subscriptions from 1 to 12 months. Good news for you, as new alternative training methods combining functional training and cutting-edge technologies, such as electrical impulses and cold therapy are rapidly increasing their presence in the city.

Natked - CityLife District

The brainchild to Gianluca De Benedictis – president and technical director – Natked focuses on an innovative high-intensity method, a functional training combining resistance programmes, martial arts, dance settings and yoga techniques for a full-body workout. Performed totally barefoot and based on three different styles – Elements, Flow and Strength – Natked’s method has been conceived to enhance fluidity and flexibility, as well as strength and resistance, and to re-balance the body. After a one-to-one consultation, a personal trainer designs the best training for each one’s needs and suggests the best collateral wellness programmes between cryotherapy, massotherapy and osteopathy to reach the ideal wellbeing and body shape. Natked features two gyms, one under the shade of CityLife’s skyscrapers and one in the heart of the Porta Nuova district.
